Danielle Edwards

VP Commercial Satcom
Open Cosmos

Danielle has built her career at the intersection of satellite technology and the industries that depend on it most — energy, maritime, government, and enterprise.

Now VP of Commercial Satcom, at Open Cosmos, she leads the commercial growth of satellite broadband and IOT connectivity solutions. Her previous roles include VP positions at iDirect, NSSLGlobal, EchoStar Mobile, and RigNet — where she spent years working directly with enterprise and government customers on connectivity challenges in remote and mission-critical environments.

With more than two decades in the industry, she brings the kind of perspective that only comes from having been on both the product and the commercial side — understanding not just what satellite technology can do, but how to make it work for real customers in real conditions. She speaks and advises on satellite IoT and data solutions, go-to-market strategy, and the commercialisation of space-enabled services.
